AN important point, and one that
may lead to unplensant complications
of an international character, has been
raised a. regards the legality of the
seizure and sale Of the American fish.
ing schooner. Highland Light, by the
Dominion government tor violation If
fishing regulations. 1sst summer u e
Highland Light was seized aud contis-
Gated. Finding that mistake had
been made the government ordered all
subsequent seizures to be made under
the customs and not the fishery regu-
lstions, although for what reason was
not generally known at the time. All
wondered at this, but the government
said. IF we seize under the fishery
regulation we confiscate the vessel,
whereas il the seizure il made under
the custom laws we can impose fine.
aud as we do not wish TO be arbitrary
we choose the latter. The last
session Of the Dominion parliament
passed bill, the object Of which WAS
to give power TO the Dominion author
titles to enforce the provisions Of the
treaty Of 1918 and confiscate all Offend
ing fishing vessels. The Queen, how
ever, did not approve this act until
the 18th of November, months after
the seizure Of the Highland Light.
An effort will now be made to prove
that the seizure aud coufiscation was
illegal. It Is evident that before this
fishery matter Is settled there will be
some interesting developments.

HOME. SWEET HOME"

DR.. Charles Mckay says that Sir Hem
ry Bishop assured him that he composed
the music of "Home, Sweet Home" IL
early manhood for Messrs. Goulding ano
D'Almaine, who were publishing series
of national melodies of all countries.
The words were by Mr.. Howard Payne,
an American then resident in England.
A "Sicilian melody" was wanted, and as
Sir Henry was unable to find one he COM
posed alone, Sweet Home" and passed
it off as Sicilian. Several other publish
ers, thinking that it really was Sicilian,
and not copyrighted, pirated the music
and series of actions ensued. Sir Hen.
ny deposed on oath to the facts above
mentioned, and Messrs. Goulding and
D'Almaine obtained nominal damages.
This statement is clear and explicit, and
should set at rest long disputed ques-
ton. AS the song is equally popular on
both sides the Atlantic, it is fitting that
an American and an Englishman should
have been conjoined in ite production. =

HATE IN THE PULPIT.
BY CHARLES MACKAY.

A thunderer in the pulpit?-let us hear
He cries with voice of stentor, loud and clear,
That God desires no music in his praise
But human voices upon Sabbath days;
That art in churches is thing abhorr'd.
And architecture odious to the Lord:
That none who prays with other forms than he,
Shall share the blessings of Eternity.
Down, bigot, down too proud and blind to
know
That God who fashioned all things here below,
Made music and the arts; that organ tones
Are his creation; that:the starry zones
And pomp of the cathedral, both alike
Were formed by Him. Mems hands can delve
or strike,
And build or overthrow; but all their power
Is Gods alone. Poor creature of an hour,
Be humble and confess how small art thoul
wouldst carry all Gods wisdom on thy brow?
Andin the limits of thy sect confine
The infinite mercy of his love divine?
Hate in the pulpit Down. intruder, down
The place is holy, and thine angry frown
Sheds visible darkness on the listening throng.
Down, bigot, down thy heart is in the wrong
Thou art not pure;- within this place should
dwell
Humility, and love inefable,
Self-abnegation and the tranquil mind:
And heavenly charity, enduring, kind;
Patience and Hope, and words of gentleness!
Down to thy closet-not to curse, but bless;
And learn the law-the tum of all the ten
That love of God includes the love of men.

A few years later 7 again visited nv

A few years later I again visited my
mothers friend. The infirmities of age
had compelled her to lay aside many OF
her cares, but she scarcely realized the
surrender, SO cheerfully had they been
assumed by her sons wife.
"Jenny takes pride in keeping every
thing just as I've kept it; SO it's pleasant
to sit and look on" she said.

"Yes. it's pleasant to be taken care of, /"
she repeated, looking fondly upon her

told me of Jenny's loving care, repeating

A LARGE CITY.

Ii any one were to walk one way
through all the streets of London, he
would be obliged to go a distance Of
two thousand six hundred miles, or as
far as it is across the American continent
from New York to San Francisco. This
will give an idea of what would have to
be done in order to see even the greater
part OF London.
In our approach to this city, as we'll as
in our rambles through it's streets, we
shall not be struck SO much by its splen-
did and imposing appearance, as by its
immensely. Go where we may, there
seems to be no end to the town. It is four
teen miles one way, and eight miles the
other, and contains a population of near
ly four million people, which is greater
indeed than that of Switzerland or the
kingdoms OF Denmark and Greece COM
bined. We are told on good authority
that there are more Scotchmen in Lon
don than in Edinburgh, more Irishmen
than in Dublin, and more Jews than in

of the world, including great number
OF Americans. Yet there are so many
Englishmen in London, that one is not
likely to notice the presence of these peo-
pie of other nations.
This vast body of citizens, some SO rich
that they can never count their money;
and some so poor that they never have
any to count, eat four hundred thou
sand oxen, one and half million sheep,
eight million chickens and game birds,
not to speak of calves, hogs and different
kinds of fish. They consume five hun
deed million oysters, which although it
seems like large number, would only
give, if equally divided among all the
people, one oyster every third day to
each person. There are three hundred
thousand servants in London, enough
people to make large city; but as this
gives only one servant to each dozen citi-
zens, it is quite evident that great many
OF the people must wait on themselves
Things are very unequally divided in
London; and I have no doubt that in
stead OF there being one servant to twelve
persons, some of the rich lords and ladies
have twelve servants apiece. From

THE coRsIcAN uPsrARr.


The French Revolution had not only
shocked and Mortified the sober-minded
folk of Europe-and we may say, of Amer
lea, also-by its atrocities and bloodshed,
but it had brought about a state of
things which was to the ruling classes OF
the Continent and England standing
outrage upon the fundamental principles
of society and government. Here was a
"Corsican upstart" at the head of France;
his ministers were men risen from the
ranks; his code, which he vigorously i'm
posed on all the territories which he
either conquered or annexed, made all
men equal before the law, and rendered
an aristocratic government impossible.
The walks of life were thrown open to
all; any man, no matter how humble his
origin, might be an officer of the army.
might even become marshal of France.
The spectacle which the Empire of Ma
poleon presented, moreover, was most
encouraging to the growth and spread OF
the new ideas and the new system.
France, Belgium, Holland, the German
States on the Upper Rhine, Italy, had all
adopted to greater or less extent, the
new doctrines, and they we're all in q
condition of unexsmpled prosperity,
despite the wars Of the last dozen years.
The new monarch, too, was plainly a rest
less, scheming, ambitious man. He and
his system ought to be overthrown; the
safety of society, the interest of public
morals, demanded it, to say nothing OF
the balance OF power, which was greatly
disturbed by the excessive preponder-
ance Of France.
The state of feeling at this time in
Europe was, as respects this subject,
wholly different from that which exists
to-day. 1t has now been found by expe-
rience, that these contrasts in the ideas
and forms OF government existing in con-
tiguous countries do not necessarily, or
even generally, lead to war, or even to
the introduction into the more conserva-
tive countries of the liberal notions OF
their next neighbors. But in the last
years of the last century, and the first
years OF this, almost everybody in Eu-
rope thought differently.-John @. Ropes,
IN Scribner's Magazine for June.

BURDENS OF CRABS.

AS crabs approach old age and no long
or increase in size, their shells, which in
youth were shed frequently to accommo-
date growth in body. are often retained
several years, and the creatures become
liable to fall victims to the strangest sort
OF parasitism. Barnacles and all sorts of
marine growths collect upon the shell,
and in many cases almost completely
hide the crab. A remarkable example of
this may be seen in the British Museum,
where has been placed en- old crab of the
edible species, with some half dozen oys-
tiers Of large size fixed 10 it's back, which
load, ever increasing, the old crab was
doomed to carry to the end of its days.
Another curious specimen preserved is
that of a hairy crab, which. though not
larger itself than walnut, is saddled
with sponge as big as a mans fist.

EXHAUSTION OF NATURAL GAS

EXHAUSTION OF NATURAL GAS
That the supply Of gas is limited, and
that it ultimately will be exhausted, does
not admit Of question. In this belief
all unite. How long the supply will last
is the subject of argument. The advo.
Gates of the storage theory assert that
the supply will be exhausted when the
gas stored in the storage reservoirs is ex-
hausted, while no advocate of the contin-
uous production theory, 80 far as we
are aware, believes that the present rate
of outflow can be maintained by any
probable rate of production that is at
present going on in the esrth's interior
The latter theorists Of course, hold that
as production is continuous, the day OF
exhaustion is further in the future than
is admitted by the advocates of the stor.
age theory; and that even when the vast
storehouses are exhausted, production
will still continue and gas be supplied
but in smaller quantities.
Experience furnishes some informa-
ton relative to the exhaustion of certain
fields, and supplies an imperfect basis Of
calculation as to the the ultimate fail.
ure OF the supply, but, after all, there
are but few data upon which to rest any
reasonable prediction. 1t is found as a
rule, for example, that shallow wells"
whatever may be pressure or supply
when first struck, give out much sooner
than what are known as "deep wells" In
certain districts the supply of individual
wells is soon exhausted, and the amount
furnished by new wells when first bored
is constantly decreasing quantity as
compared with that supplied by the
earlier wells. In osker districts, the life
of wells is longer, but the earlier wells
are now quite weak or exhausted, and new
wells sunk do not produce any such
amount Of gas as those at first drilled.
In still other districts, however, the
great "gasers" at first struck have been
pouring out gas by the million feet per
day for years without any apparent dim
mutton in pressure or volume. = Joseph
d. Weeks, IN Age of Steel.

THE ORIGIN OF FoLK-rALEs.

THE ORIGIN OF FOLK-TALES.
1t is not denied that some tales may
have been handed down generation after
generation, nor that some may have been
disseminated in the manner mentioned
by Mr.. Lang. 1t is exceedingly unlikely
that by either process, they would retain
their original form. Belief in magic,
however, we know has prevailed almost
universally among primitive peoples and
is hardly extinct yet among the common
people of the most enlightened countries.
Nothing was 30 common in savage life as
for one person to be in peril at the hands
of another, or from wild beasts, storm,
flood, lightning, or tornado, all of which
we're equally persons to the savage appre-
hension. Escape from danger, we may
assume was not rare. Why should not
tales Of his adventures be full of the
savage belief of the story-teller. The
reader has noted the modern air of most
of these stories. Clearly there has been
an adaptation OF primitive beliefs to mod

cess gone on among ell peoples, in all
times, until advancing civilization drove
out the old beliefs? The origin Of these
beliefs cannot here discuss. We know
they existed, and that with people OF a
given development, they have had re-
markable likeness the world over. My
purpose is merely to show that these
stories may have been separately invent
ed, that there is no more reason to sup
pose given people has borrowed them
than their other tales. Is there not quite
as much diversity in them as in our mod
ern love stories? Have not the poor hero
and wealthy heroine always existed and
had before them the problem of outwit.
